Normal operating noises of the cooktop
lnduction technology is based on the creation of
electromagnetic fields. They may generate heat
directly on the bottom of the cookware. Pots and
pans may cause a variety of noises or vibrations
depending on the way they‘ve been manufactured.
These noises are described as follows:
Low humming (like a transformer)
This noise is produced when cooking at a high heat
level. lt is based on the amount of energy transferred
from the cooktop to the cookware. The noise ceases
or quiets down when the heat level is reduced.
Quiet whistling
This noise is produced when the cooking vessel
is empty. lt ceases once water or food is placed in
the vessel.
Crackling
This noise occurs with cookware comprised of
various materials layered one upon the other. lt‘s
caused by the vibrations of the surfaces where
different materials meet. The noise occurs on the
cookware and can vary depending on the amount
and method of preparation of the food.
Loud whistling
This noise occurs with cookware comprised of
different materials layered one upon the other, and
when they are additionally used at maximum output
and also on two cooking zones. The noise ceases or
quiets down when the heat level is reduced.
Fan noises
For proper operation of the electronic system,
it is necessary to regulate the temperature of
the cooktop. For this purpose, the cooktop is
equipped with a cooling fan, which is activated
to reduce and regulate the temperature of the
electronic system. The fan may also continue to
run after the appliance is turned off if the detected
temperature of the cooktop is stili too hot after
turning it off.
Rhythmic sounds and similar to the hands of
a clock
This noise occurs only when at least three cooking
zones are operating and disappears or weakens
when some of them are switched off.
The noises described are a normal element of the
described induction technology and shouldn‘t be
regarded as defects.
